Hanging fan cat face

This is a very artistic artwork that is a stunning decorative addition to your home. The beauty of this artwork is that, as an adult you can prepare a lot of it beforehand and then allow your toddler or younger child to spray their artistic paint over it. Older children will have no problem folding and attaching the paper.

You will need

Fullscap paper: 72cm x 36cm

Two smaller rectangles for the ears

Paint

String

Toothbrush/ dish washing brush

Staples

Glue

Picture of a cat

To do

Fold the paper into a concertina style fan. Tie a piece of string a the centre and glue or staple either side to make a circle.

Make the ears by folding them in a similar way, pinching one end and stapling it together, with the wider side to be stapled to the circle.

For the face use an image of a cat with eyes, nose and whiskers. Cut them out and paste them on. (I used the image next to this text)

Now it’s the fun part! Get out the splatter equipment, toothbrush, dish washing brush, immerse them in different colour paints (we used yellow, orange, red). Keep a bowl nearby to rinse your implements inbetween colours.
